Just catching up. I cannot imagine the trauma of your Ukraine family, to leave everything and everyone behind. It is almost unthinkable and unbearable. You are being so kind to open your home.Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!6 -
